The International Ice Patrol 

 requested that all ships transiting 

 the area of the Grand Banks report 

 ice sightings, weather, and sea sur- 

 face tennperatures via Canadian 

 Coast Guard Radio Station St. 

 John's/VON or U. S. Coast Guard 

 Communications Station Boston/ 

 NIK. Response to this request is 

 shown in Table 5, and Appendix A 

 lists all contributors. Although St 

 John's/VON remained the primary 

 source of relayed information, IIP 

 received more relayed information 

 from the following sources during 

 the 1989 ice year than in previous 

 years: ECAREG Halifax, Canada; 

 U.S. Coast Guard Communications 

 and MasterStation Atlantic, Norfolk, 

 Virginia; and U.S. Coast Guard Au- 

 tomated Merchant Vessel Emer- 

 gency Response/Operational 

 Computer Center, New York.
